"All loss is one, and one loss becomes all, a single death the key to the gate that bars memory."
Until now, Highlander Jamie Fraser and his wife, Claire have shared the war for American independence as much as they've shared their lives. Jamie, always a warrior and now a soldier and an officer, fights the enemy with fire and sword; Claire, once a nurse and now a healer, fights death through every battle and sometimes wins.
Nothing can divide them, save dire emergency. And emergency finds each of them bound by blood, by vows and obligations of the heart. To their family, as well as to comrades and each other.
Claire's battles aren't limited to the battlefield, and she cannot deny an urgent call that only she can answer. Jamie is a reluctant rebel who knows the Americans will win, but he'd rather die than face his illegitimate son across the barrel of a gun.
And Claire, with her 20th century knowledge, knows the Americans will win, but she's not sure what the price will be - and can only hope it won't be Jamie's life . . .
